The Italian car manufacturer Lamborghini is going completely electric. Still, before that, the luxury carmaker has announced its final Aventador that celebrates the iconic V12 super sports car and combustion engine. Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae is available in two variants – Coupe and Roadster.

After a glorious run of 10 years, the V12 engine shines for one last time. “The Aventador LP 780-4 denotes the final, purest, timeless naturally-aspirated production V12 Lamborghini,” says Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini. “It delivers the essential twelve-cylinder experience in terms of inimitable design, engineering solutions and the most emotive driving experience, and is the definitive Aventador concluding an extraordinary era. It is the last of its kind: it delivers the maximum power and conclusive performance expected from Lamborghini’s current V12 engine, combined with our inimitable flagship’s design DNA. The Aventador was destined to become a classic from launch, and the Aventador LP 780-4 is the most beautiful expression of timeless design and technical solutions in a final edition: Ultimae.”

The twelve-cylinder, 6.5-litre ‘Longitudinale Posteriore’ (LP) will arrive in 2023. The engine delivers 780 CV: 40 CV more than the Aventador S and 10 CV over the SVJ to its permanent four-wheel drive. It is the grand finale of the traditional V12 combustion engine and the ultimate Aventador in every sense. The Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 2.8 seconds, 0-200 km/h in 8,7 and a top speed of 355 km/h (coupé).

The active aero system’s rear wing moves into three positions – closed, ‘maximum performance’ and ‘maximum handling’. Transmission is via Lamborghini’s lightweight Independent Shifting Rod (ISR) 7-speed shifting system, providing robotized gearshifts in up to 50 milliseconds. The Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae’s drive modes allow the pilot to select not only STRADA, SPORT and CORSA dynamic options, but in EGO mode choose their parameters for the optimum set-up of the Lamborghini active suspension (LMS), traction controls (engine, gearbox and four-wheel drive) as well as steering.

The Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae celebrates the Lamborghini Aventador’s complex yet elegant lines and surfaces: the culmination of Lamborghini’s aspirated-V12 design legacy. Paying homage to the benchmark performance of the SVJ and the ageless super sports elegance of the S model, it takes the best components of both to create a perfect balance between performance and dynamism with enduring sophistication.

The Aventador is limited to only 350 coupés, and 250 roadsters numbered editions, offering a refined yet dynamic, elegant yet distinctive representation of the last Aventador. Its silhouette, clean and unfettered, is as recognizable and timeless an outline as other V12 Lamborghini classics such as Countach, Diablo and Murciélago. Offered as standard are 18 colours, with an unprecedented range of options and more than 300 colours available through Lamborghini Ad Personam, allowing owners to create their unique piece of Lamborghini V12 motoring history.

The Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae coupé is launched in a two-tone, grey-on-grey configuration, with lines and details such as the front splitter’s outline and ‘teeth’ picked out in matt red Rosso Mimir, with the accent line continuing along with the car with matching accents on the rear fins of the visible carbon-fibre rear diffuser: elite performance and design purity in perfect harmony. The roof is also offered in visible carbon fibre on the Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae Roadster. Silver Dianthus 20” and 21” forged alloys come as standard together with further 20” and 21” options in Dianthus, Leiron and Nireo in bronze, black and titanium, fitted with Pirelli PZero Corsa tires.

The matt Grigio Acheso and Grigio Teca exterior colours’ elegant yet sporty two-tone is echoed in the interior: black leather and Alcantara base materials feature stitching and trim in a complementary grey to the exterior, with ‘Y’ seat inserts in black Alcantara. The LP 780-4’s comfort seat is taken from the Aventador S, with the ‘Ultimae’ name embroidered into the seat bolster, while the A-pillar driver dashboard area carries the 001 of 350/250 reference to the limited edition. The Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae Roadster is launched in Blu Tawaret and Blu Nethuns with high gloss black carbon fibre roof panels.

The next generation of Lamborghini’s V12 engine will offer a naturally aspirated engine with an augmented electric hybrid system. This extraordinary combination with be the best of both worlds!
